Do you have a natd.conf file? What does your rc.conf

packets to be translated. Telling the firewall to send
the packets to natd is one thing, what the happens to
them after that is another. You ARE missing the setup
for natd.

Please read this link. I sent you something similar in
my previous reply. And you are still asking the same
question. It is very self-explanatory.
